CS: It is difficult for developers to know what to do with ARIA, so this is what these guidelines are for.

16:10:41 [Joshue]

CS: Other pieces, are the mappings between accessibility APIs etc.

Deliverables

16:11:21 [oedipus]

* WAI-ARIA User Agent Implementation Guidelines, as a deliverable of the PFWG. This would be a Working Group Note and include a mapping of ARIA features to accessibility API features or some neutral abstraction. It is separate from the ARIA specification, but (if the User Agent Implementation Guidelines is on the Recommendation track) both documents should reach CR at the same time, as the user agent implementation guidelines is needed to document implementation

16:11:21 [oedipus]

* Mapping of HTML features to accessibility API features, as a deliverable of the HTML WG. The mapping needs to be developed together with the ARIA mapping in the previous deliverable, in order to ensure that the recommendations of these two mappings are consistent. This may be subsumed into one or another of the HTML5 deliverables.

16:11:24 [oedipus]

* The tests that are used to get WAI-ARIA through CR, as a deliverable of the PFWG.

16:11:27 [oedipus]

* The tests that are used to get HTML5 through CR, as a deliverable of the HTML WG.

16:11:28 [oedipus]

* Produce implementation guidance dealing with how access information from the formats is communicated to AT.

16:11:31 [oedipus]

* Test suite development to a degree which can be adjusted as the work progresses.

16:11:33 [oedipus]

* Propose additions and edits to the WAI-ARIA specification that are necessary to ensure user agent interoperability.
